Both the utilities seem to agree upon a screen size much smaller than it actually is: in fact, 'xrandr' produces the following output: SZ: Pixels Physical Refresh *0 800 x 600 ( 203mm x 152mm ) *73 1 640 x 480 ( 203mm x 152mm ) 73 Current rotation - normal Current reflection - none Rotations possible - normal Reflections possible - none , and 'xdpyinfo': screen #0: dimensions: 800x600 pixels (203x152 millimeters) resolution: 100x100 dots per inch depths (7): 24, 1, 4, 8, 15, 16, 32 root window id: 0x3a depth of root window: 24 planes number of colormaps: minimum 1, maximum 1 default colormap: 0x20 default number of colormap cells: 256 , whereas the screen is actually about 305×230 millimeters. Any idea how to adjust this? Thanks, Rodolfo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
